Committee
A survey has found about 13 percent of first-time smokers in the country are junior high school
students. It also revealed 89 percent of young female employees were smokers.
The survey was conducted in five major cities across the country, including Surakarta in Central
Java.
Muhammad Syahril Mansyur, the Surakarta Health Agency’s respiratory illness division, said
that the finding of the survey showed an alarming growth rate of Indonesian smokers. ""This
situation is a cause for concern,” he said. “It appears the country’s younger generation is
uneducated about the health risks of smoking.”
The Indonesian anti-tobacco campaign has reportedly been deemed as ineffective as the
government refuses to sign the international convention on tobacco control. It said that cigarette
producers contributed to a large amount to state revenue and gave jobs to thousands of workers.
The article talks about the problem in the growing rate cases of smokers in Indonesia

Faraday studied the magnetic field around a conductor carrying a DC electric current. While
conducting these studies, Faraday established the basis for the electromagnetic field concept in
physics, subsequently enlarged upon by James Maxwell. He similarly discovered
electromagnetic induction, diamagnetism, and laws of electrolysis. He established that
magnetism could affect rays of light and that there was an underlying relationship between the
two phenomena. His inventions of electromagnetic rotary devices formed the foundation of
electric motor technology, and it was largely due to his efforts that electricity became viable for
use in technology.
Although Faraday received little formal education and knew little of higher mathematics, such
as calculus, he was one of the most influential scientists in history. Historians of science refer
to him as the best experimentalist in the history of science. The SI unit of capacitance, the farad,
is named after him, as is the Faraday constant, the charge on a mole of electrons (about 96,485
coulombs). Faraday’s law of induction states that magnetic flux changing in time creates a
proportional electromotive force.
Faraday was the first and foremost Fullerian Professor of Chemistry at the Royal Institution of
Great Britain, a position to which he was appointed for life.
Albert Einstein kept a photograph of Faraday on his study wall alongside pictures of Isaac
Newton and James Clerk Maxwell.
Faraday was highly religious. He was a member of the Sandemanian Church, a Christian sect
founded in 1730 that demanded total faith and commitment. Biographers have noted that a
strong sense of the unity of God and nature pervaded Faraday’s life and work.
44. According to the text, what was Michael Faraday good at?
Chemistry and Physics
benzene, investigated the clathrate hydrate of chlorine, invented an early form of the Bunsen burner
and the system of oxidation numbers, and popularized terminology such as anode, cathode,
electrode, and ion.
